I want to restore my last week set up? how to do?

Answers :

Using Windows Vista System Restore\015\012\015\012Windows Vista has a feature called System Restore that automatically backs up registry and system files whenever you install new software or drivers. This feature is useful when you install evil software that makes your computer run really slow. But don’t worry, System Restore won’t remove Windows Vista.\015\012Using System Restore in Windows\015\012There are two places that you can use the system restore feature from. From within Windows, you can just type restore into the Start menu search box, and you’ll immediately see System Restore at the top of the start menu:\015\012\015\012Or you can type rstrui into the search box and hit enter. Your choice.\015\012You will immediate see a screen where you can choose to roll back the system to the last restore point. You can select “Recommended restore”, and just click next, or you can choose a different restore point\015\012\015\012If you do choose a different restore point, you will see a list of restore points that you can choose from. How many times have I typed the word choose at this point?\015\012You’ll notice in the screenshot below that the last thing I did was install Virtual CloneDrive to mount ISO images, but right before that I installed the NVIDIA drivers. \015\012\015\012Click one of them, and you will have to confirm and then restart your computer to roll the system back. \015\012\015\012If you receive an error while restoring, then use it from safe mode and it should work fine. To get into Safe mode, you can reboot and use the F8 key right before Windows starts up.\015\012\015\012If Your System Won’t Boot\015\012If you can’t even get into windows, you can boot off the installation dvd, and choose the “Repair your computer” option on the lower left hand side. .\015\012Click next on the next screen, and then choose System Restore from the System Recovery dialog. It will take a few seconds to come up, and you will see the same screen that you would see in Windows:\015\012\015\012Click next, and on the next screen select the drive that your copy of Windows Vista is installed on.\015\012Click Finish, and Vista will roll back to the previous restore point.

The Intel ATOM is a great board but we have one issue.

We have tried different settings in the BIOS and uploaded software issue 0029 but without success. Does anyone have a suggestion on what to try?

OK ... try this. The bios is not your problem (I'm pretty sure). The network port is driven by the network set-up in the original OS disk ... somehow the network software is not following thru. To mend this 1. go to the bios and set the first ...
